VACATION!

We recently spent a week full of wonderful weather with some good friends at Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.


As I was packing, I made sure I had plenty of sock yarn and patterns to keep me busy. Did I touch any of it? NO! I had my face buried in a book all week. I spent every spare minute reading the first book and half of the second book in the thrilling Stieg Larsson trilogy.

Even though I didn't get any new stitching accomplished, some of my past projects made an appearance at the beach:


I had the opportunity to visit the local yarn store called Kitschy Stitch where I spent a considerable amount of time browsing at all the beautiful yarns. I gave up buying ice cream for myself all week so I could treat myself to some Plymouth Encore Colorspun yarn in the grey/blue colors of the beach.


I'm still not sure what I'll do with this yarn, maybe it'll become a new shrug or maybe a lacy cardigan. Regardless of what shape this new yarn takes it'll be much more becoming than what a week's worth of ice cream would have done to MY shape!
